General Motors Customer FAQ

The flashing security light indicates that the vehicle's security system may be engaged, preventing the engine from starting. This could happen if the car’s key or security system does not recognize the key being used. Try the following: ensure you are using the correct key, check for any damaged components, and consider resetting the security system. If the problem persists, further diagnostics may be needed to resolve the issue.

Unfortunately, we cannot directly assist with repairs or confirm personal recall information. However, General Motors is committed to safety and will handle recalls diligently to ensure the safety of all their customers. For your specific situation with the 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500, we recommend checking the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's website or your local dealership to confirm if there have been any recalls related to the transmission. If a recall has been issued for your vehicle, repair or replacement costs are normally handled by the manufacturer.
